STEROID-ASSOCIATED HIP JOINT COLLAPSE IN BIPEDAL EMUS.

Steroid-associated hip joint collapse in bipedal emus.

In this study we established a bipedal animal model of steroid-associated hip joint collapse in emus for testing potential treatment protocols to be developed for prevention of steroid-associated joint collapse in preclinical settings.Five adult male emus were treated with a steroid-associated osteonecrosis (SAON) induction protocol using combinati

Nonperiodic Oscillation With Wavelength of Mode Guided in a Special Ti-Diffused $hbox{LiNbO}_{3}$ Waveguide Structure

We report an abnormal waveguiding phenomenon that the 1073spx fundamental mode guided in strip waveguides of a special Ti-diffused LiNbO3 waveguide structure, in which an array of 4and 6-μm-wide strip waveguides is embedded in a planar waveguide, nonperiodically oscillates with the wavelength along the waveguide width direction.The oscillati
